Sorry I forgot to mention that I need an Crossfire compatable mobo. And I still have a CRT monitor, so do I need on board VGA?

crossfire' 'certified mobos' - now which one is good i don't know...
Re: Need help choosing Conroe Mobo.
ATI has just released new drivers, and ASUS a new BIOS, that enable Crossfire in P965 chipset mobos. The ASUS P5B Deluxe will now support Crossfire, although with some limits - there's a nice article over at Anandtech (http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=2837).
The other option, somewhat more expensive, is a ASUS P5W DH DELUXE/WIFI-AP (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131025), which uses the 975X chipset.

Re: Need help choosing Conroe Mobo.
I have a 6600 and the above mentioned ASUS board. No problems so far, although havent pushed the clock very high yet so I cant report on overclocking. One thing about these ASUS boards is that their thermal diodes seem to report erronously high temps
